Colorado Springs Mother’s Day plans to book now

A reminder to every son, daughter and dad out there, Mother's Day is this Sunday.

• Here's a short list of local options to celebrate:

🧖 Spa-ah day: Go with her, or just book her a luxurious day out at one of the city's many spa options.

• Go high-end — with The Broadmoor.
• Or go low-key — with the Sunwater Spa soak tubs.

🛍️ Take her shopping: Downtown has a good variety of original shops, and this year The Downtown Partnership is running a special "Mom's Day Out" sticker scavenger hunt Saturday, with 10 participating businesses.

• Plus, you've got a variety of big-box options along Powers.
• And Old Colorado City has charm.

Yes, but: It's first-come, first-served, with a 125-person limit on that scavenger hunt.

💐 Grow the relationship: Mother's Day also marks the start of planting season for local gardeners, so if your mom has a green thumb, swing by a garden center together or do some planting.

• Hillside Gardens serves up Bloody Marys and plant sales all weekend long.
